i wish i weren’t so damn sad. it seems ridiculous: this is still the best semester i’ve had so far, even if my interest in my classes is waning. i love living where i do, among people. something’s always happening — granted, often behind a closed door and not something you want to walk in on, but it’s college: it’s wonderful. it’s just sadly also november, when it really hits home that it won’t be warm again for six months; that you can’t frolic so you should probably work though you don’t want to, you slacker; that, aside from holidays, there isn’t much to look forward to. i would do something spectacular if i could only think of what, and if everyone around me weren’t as mopey as i am. (or lovestruck, but if you’re mopey, that can be worse.)
happy birthday to my brother who turned 22 in new orleans. where better? i hear the weather’s lovely there during the winter. maybe i should pack everything and go. who needs a Watson to see the world?
everybody wants a little sweetness, and nothing wrong, nothing wrong, nothing wrong …
